  1. It was a painful video, but one that was all the more worth watching. Thank you, Mr. Academy, for today’s bitter medicine.

  2. I think the stagnation, decline, and collapse of civilisations are inevitable functions of human nature. Nevertheless, if people do try to maintain the pioneering spirit without losing traditional values, it may be possible to slow the tide. Without getting too preachy, while there is certainly some kind of predestination and fate at work from God, there is freedom of choice as well. Still, it does seem like the age of decadence has already arrived and we are possibly at the point of no return. As I do not want to end on a negative note, we still should do what we can to be virtuous, rational, and yet spiritually-inclined human beings. It's very tempting to toss our hands up in the air and give up, but let us continue with this animating contest for liberty. Peace.

  3. Some people are recommending Bitcoin; I personally couldn't disagree more. Bitcoin has all the problems that the dollar has, except amplified. What if there's a grid collapse, God forbid? I think it's better to have some food, some water, maybe some freedom seeds (censorship is far too high on this platform for me to speak plainly), and if you can, some gold (in Latin, aurum, where Au comes from on the periodic table) and silver (argentum, where Ag comes from).

  4. I am so glad that I am not the only one that thought this. I find it kind of distracting and I had to mute the video so I could focus. It just seems a bit over the top, and it does not give the philosophy the respect (not respect per se, but moreover some combination of focus and seriousness) it deserves. This is not (or at least should not be) some theatrical performance for us to get the most out of the material. Otherwise, it's kind of cringeworthy.

  5. Isn't it obvious? Of course we are! This psychosis has overtaken my entire family, friends, and neighbours, but at least we are of sane and rational minds. Some of us may have differing explanations with which to articulate it, but at least we can see through what is going on outside our windows because we do not care about fitting in. I am speaking in regards to the greatest psychological operation of all time, one that was declared on March 11, 2020 in Geneva, Switzerland.

  6. There was a psychopath whose channel I used to frequent on Youtube. His name was Zachary K. Hubbard and his channel’s name is Gematria Effect News. Thank you for making this video; it is helping me overcome the traumatic experience of being exploited by that character.

  7.  @valerierogers9609  Absolutely, Valerie. It is sickening; the level of fear I see in my town's streets. I don't know whether to laugh, cry, or be extremely angry at the sheer idiocy that the masses conduct themselves with.

  8.  @Sunfried1  I think the Demoncats and Repulsivekins are both complicit in the systematic eradication of civil liberties over the decades. There is no fundamental difference between either of these frauds. The Orange Man and Mr. Magoo are basically the same. Democrats are communists and Republicans are fascists. Neither of them truly care about the rights of the individual, and will resort to fear-mongering to coerce submission.

  9. Well said, Tina. Well said.

  10. I thought Jiddu Krishnamurthi said that, but it's a great quote. I have it on my wall.

  11. Maybe Von Mises' quote at 8:53 is where Gerald Celente's expression of "the money junkies" came from. That is another smart cookie when it comes to economic analysis.

  12. Thank you, atheists, for confirming the premise of this video. Don’t let that door hit your arse on the way out!

  13.  @madmaximum875  We all are biased, but until you can prove to me otherwise, you are prejudiced against the truth.

  14. As Mama Cass Eliott said, "You got to make your own kind of music. Sing your own special song, even when no one else sings along."

  15. It was probably a rhetorical question, Amol. Nevertheless, you could create multiple accounts, but with the same account, I doubt it's possible. I share your sentiment, and for this, I am the first person to have liked your comment.

  16. In addition to those stooges, it explains Antifa and BLM. Most importantly, however, it explains our current medical tyranny paradigm.

  17. Why are we so weak? We have turned away from God, and so God has turned away from us. If we should turn back to Him, God willing, we shall regain the strength of pre-modern man. May God help us in these, the End Times. Amen.

  18.  @johnb9999  Good point. This is practical philosophy. Philosophy is inherently practical, despite what society thinks. Nevertheless, I've noticed what you've noticed, Aaron, for several months now and that's rather admirable on Academy's part. Finally, I'm wondering if Michael was making a tongue in cheek reference.

  19. I'm not sure if I like this new format. What was wrong with how things were done until the last video? What's the point of using German accents for Leopold Kohr? Is there some kind of actor being hired? It seems a bit fake, in my humble opinion. Of course, I could just mute the video and read at my own pace, but I hope you understand my perspective. Thank you and have a nice day.

  20. I have bad news for you, Jerry: they've already began trickling in with their programmed B.S. reactions. It's sad how people are allergic to liberty and addicted to the nanny state. DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER.

  21. Sounds like Biden and Kennedy (RFK Jr.) too. Sounds like all the major choices on the ballot box next year.

  22. I honestly am not sure if it would make it past 2030. Just imagining the next decade makes me cringe.

  23. That Great Reset makes me shudder... it seems like a disturbing combination of Orwell's "1984," mixed with Huxley's "Brave New World," and perhaps a few other dystopias thrown in for good measure.

  24. Ah, if only...

  25. Great question, Nate. It is an artist’s impression of Assyrian palaces from "The Monuments of Nineveh" by Sir Austen Henry Layard, dated 1853. That link by Mr. Academy of Ideas (the uploader) in the pinned comment goes off to a site that can help you access that information, even if you aren't in a position to support him.

  26.  @natemichael9655  You're welcome, Nate. Glad to help.

  27. Tell that to the people who deleted themselves… oh, wait, you can’t.

  28.  @GIOvy-oc8ew  I see, although those subjects are incredibly related. The psyche is the bridge between the mind and the soul.
    2
  29. I guess it's about the approach to psychology too. We're not behaviorists (e.g. Skinner, Adler) here. Jung was a deeply spiritual psychoanalyst, and he's a major influence on this channel.

  30. I support science so long as that science is independent of government.
    2
  31. Quite true. I myself use religion and spirituality interchangeably, and when the uploader made the video, I assumed he was using these terms interchangeably.

  32. If it's so worthless, why are you here? Why do you assume we need a methodology? Cannot the pursuit of liberty be sufficient?

  33. The Academy of Ideas has other videos on the topics you have expounded. I invite you to watch them. Only so much can be covered in less than 15 minutes.

  34. Alhamdulillah, Fox Hound. Thumma Alhamdulillah.

  35. That would be a lot more risque, but mass delusions have certainly been discussed.

  36. Back the videos up then. We'll find new platforms. We'll keep on struggling against the beast system!
    2
  37. Absolutely. The gentleman who makes these videos knows this, but he is aware that censorship is so great nowadays that he won't mention it by name (although he will do everything to suggest it, and that's what a great teacher does anyway).
    2
  38. That is a challenge. I don't know how many a dinner-time conversation I've attempted, but I still continue to try it. For example, I have found that mentioning Dr. Andrew Kaufman is able to win me back some respect although I have not yet found one person that I've won over to our side in the physical realm. Appeals to authority, despite being logical fallacies, are what resonate with the "sheep," "the normies," whatever you want to call them.

  39.  @zappdannigan66  Well said.

  40. 20 hours later, and they have shown their “love”… atheism is the ultimate coincidence theory. I find it rather admirable how Mr. Academy has had the courage to stand up against this institutionalized dogma of our own time.

  41. I was born in 1987, and I would say that many of my contemporaries are cooked. I myself am addicted to the World Wide Web. This is not merely a generational problem; it is a societal one. I have encountered Boomers that are glued to their phones.

  42. It makes plenty of sense. In fact, this is common sense, something depressingly lacking in our world today.

  43. Time to go back to Cartoon Network, Johnny. This channel is for those capable of reason, which you clearly are lacking of.

  44. How can there be meaning without spirituality of some sort? In materialism, humans are worthless, but with religiosity (which if truly followed, would entail some kind of spiritual connection to a Supreme Being), humans are priceless. Life becomes worth living. Money gets exhausted. Health gets lost. If “meaning” is not spiritual in nature, then it would probably be incredibly shallow in nature.

  45.  @EricM93  Don’t be in denial, Sir. Have you watched Sportsgematria? Zach Hubbard is unhinged. I served as a moderator for Hubbard on Youtube and “Free to Find Truth,” another site, that he tried to run as his cult. This lying, cheating, hypocrite is angry about YouTube’s censorship of him, but anyone who criticizes him is silenced from his channel. Psychopaths refuse to answer questions, as Academy of Ideas’ video alerted us.

  46.  @occultteachings6261  Great question. He promotes eugenics and demands the annihilation of most of humanity, particularly those that refuse to support him. This is not one or two isolated incidents, but rather a consistent pattern of behavior. A channel named “Sportsgematria” documents the pathology of Mr. Hubbard. In the comments section of Sportsgematria’s videos, there is evidence for narcissistic abuse that can be attributed to the experience of participation in Hubbard’s neo-Pythagorean cult. Not exactly a laughing matter.

  47.  @occultteachings6261  One of Zach’s followers named Mark Hamilton even commited sui—-e because Zach bankrupted him due to those lousy picks. Please look at that channel I described to you earlier and investigate my claims, as outrageous as they may sound. Thank you and have a nice day.

  48. It’s your loss. You won’t be missed.

  49. I was wondering the same thing...

  50. Your cult of science worship is why we live in "1984."
